Deb & Matt Chat on YT: Deck 11 Room 228 (11228) Balcony Cabin Tour Quantum of the Seas

Come with us for a quick introduction and cruise cabin tour to Cabin 11228 (Deck 11 Room 228) on Quantum of the Seas. Note that cabins are near identical on both Quantum of the Seas & Ovation of the Seas, as they are sister ships within the Royal Caribbean fleet.

This is our raw first impressions. We even get lost on the way.

We found the room to be very spacious and met all our needs. The bathroom was a great size, deck was reasonable and there was plenty of storage.

This video covers power, bathroom, bedding, storage and more.
